An unexpected hug and kiss, a shared laugh, a thoughtful gesture, or a simple “I love you.” If you’re a parent you know there’s no greater joy than when your children choose to show their love for you—not because they feel like they have to or because they’re expecting something in return, but just because they want you to know they love you.

Nothing says summer like lemonade. Last year some kids in my neighborhood set up a lemonade stand and sold it for two dollars a cup. Some say rip-off, others say brilliant! They made close to $250 in a couple days. It’s amazing that a lemon, a fruit practically inedible on its own, can be turned into a much loved beverage with a little sugar and water. Okay, make that a lot of sugar.

When is the last time you got mad? For many of us, it probably wasn’t very long ago. Life is full of disappointments and there are a lot of angry people in the world because of it.

There’s no better reminder of the amount of physical effort it takes just to keep the little ones alive for the first few years. And as kids grow, that hurdle is replaced by the more complicated issues and moms only wish they could make it all better with a Barbie, band-aid, and a kiss.

With the National Day of Prayer approaching, we thought we would highlight some resources here on SkitGuys.com on the subject of Prayer. Having a National Day of Prayer helps call attention to prayer and can raise some healthy conversations about it. You may even be wondering how to pray yourself. The following is a list of videos and scripts about prayer that may help you, your ministry or someone you know as we, as a nation, focus on prayer.

There are some people reading this who know exactly what God has called them to do and how they can best serve him. But there are more than a few others out there who struggle to figure out how we fit in to God’s big picture. There’s so much pressure to make something of yourself.
